But that's ok because they live a Harmonic life due to direct quantum non-local entanglement that converts photons to electrochemical energy via the 5th dimension as infinite time-frequency energy. that's now PROVEN by quantum biology. So you just need to study science more. Try Dr. Jack Tuszynski - look him up on youtube - he's a professor in Canada.
These female sawfish prove they don’t need a male to procreate
ScienceWho needs Tinder when you can reproduce on your own? Not female smalltooth sawfish. These shark-like creatures can make babies asexually, according to a new study in Current Biology. The find marks the first observation of a free-living vertebrate animal that successfully switched from sexual to asexual breeding — a phenomenon known as facultative parthenogenesis — and yielded viable offspring in the wild.
Smalltooth sawfish, a species of ray, join a surprising collection of vertebrates that have made the switch. The earliest accounts of the facultative parthenogenesis involved birds: farmed chickens in 1872, pet pigeons in 1924 and domesticated turkeys in the 1954. “Self-loving” female sharks produced viable offspring at zoos in Omaha, Nebraska and Detroit in the last decade. Female Komodo dragons prefer coitus in the wild, but put them in a pen, and they’ll get down asexually.
“I think that facultative parthenogenesis is a more common occurrence than people would ever expect, said evolutionary biologist Warren Booth of the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma who wasn’t involved in the study. “In the last 5 years, a whole suite of studies have come out documenting the phenomenon with animals in captivity.”
Smalltooth sawfish (Pristis pectinata) are named for their sawlike beaks. The beaks act as hunting tools that track weak electric fields emitted by fish prey and then serve as the perfect weapon for slashing their meal into oblivion (see video).
he smalltooth sawfish can grow up to 25 feet long, and possesses an impressive “saw” that can sense the weak electrical currents produced in the bodies of the small fish and crustaceans upon which it feeds. It also appears to have another impressive feature: the ability to reproduce without sex.
The sawfish has sadly been exterminated
from much of its original range, throughout the Atlantic waters of the
U.S. Southeast and the Caribbean, a result of overfishing and habitat
destruction. For this reason, scientists have worried about the genetic
diversity in the fish that remain; when only a small group of animals
survive in isolated groups, this can create problems with inbreeding
that drag down the population’s health and fitness.
To that end, scientists recently set about testing the genetic diversity of sawfish (Pristis pectinata)
in southwest Florida, where the population appears to have stabilized.
That’s when they discovered something shocking: Seven of the fish lacked
the normal genetic diversity associated with sexual reproduction; the
only explanation, the scientists write in a study published today in the journal Current Biology, is that the fish are “virgin births,” products of a phenomenon called parthenogenesis.
Parthenogensis
involves reproducing without sex, and it is seen in insect and
arthropods. It has also been witnessed in some birds, amphibians and
fish in captivity. This is the first time such virgin births have been
demonstrated in a vertebrate—an animal bearing a backbone—in the wild.
(In 2012 researchers found that two snakes that became pregnant via parthenogenesis,
although it’s unknown if these offspring would have survived as they
were never born.) In other words, this is the first vertebrate “virgin
birth” seen in the wild, according to the study authors, who hail from
Stony Brook University, Chicago’s Field Museum of Natural History and
the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
The
study suggests that this may be a viable way of reproducing among some
animals. The seven fish that were begot this way were an average of
about one year old and were of normal size and appeared healthy,
although it’s unclear if they will be fertile and able to reproduce.
“Overall
this shows that [virgin birth] from parthenogenesis is not just a weird
process which happens in an aquarium, but actually in nature as well,”
says study lead author Andrew Fields, a researcher at Stony Brook
University.
The
scientists suspect such virgin births may be more common in small or
declining populations. While "we don’t know why they are reproducing
like this…it’s possible that the fact that they are critically
endangered makes this type of reproduction more likely, simply because
males and females fail to find one another when it’s time to mate and
then some of female's eggs develop without sperm,” Fields says.
Axial patterning during planarian regeneration relies on a transcriptional circuit that confers distinct positional information on the two ends of an amputated fragment. The earliest known elements of this system begin demarcating differences between anterior and posterior wounds by 6 h postamputation. However, it is still unknown what upstream events break the axial symmetry, allowing a mutual repressor system to establish invariant, distinct biochemical states at the anterior and posterior ends. Here, we show that bioelectric signaling at 3 h is crucial for the formation of proper anterior-posterior polarity in planaria. Briefly manipulating the endogenous bioelectric state by depolarizing the injured tissue during the first 3 h of regeneration alters gene expression by 6 h postamputation and leads to a double-headed phenotype upon regeneration despite confirmed washout of ionophores from tissue. These data reveal a primary functional role for resting membrane potential taking place within the first 3 h after injury and kick-starting the downstream pattern of events that elaborate anatomy over the following 10 days. We propose a simple model of molecular-genetic mechanisms to explain how physiological events taking place immediately after injury regulate the spatial distribution of downstream gene expression and anatomy of regenerating planaria.3 hours of full lotus samadhi will create the Yuan Qi symmetry breaking source of the Universe as the 5th dimension
Orchestration of the activity of billions of cells into the formation of tissues, organs, and whole bodies does not stop at embryogenesis. In adulthood, even though all cells eventually get replaced, the whole structure keeps a coherent shape for up to 2 centuries (e.g., tortoises). Moreover, some creatures are able to regenerate large parts of their body; for example, salamanders can re-grow entire lost limbs. Thus, living systems constantly monitor their shape for deviations and often can initiate processes to correct the damage and thus restore their "target morphology". These properties are not only of central importance to the fundamental understanding of embryogenesis, regeneration, cancer, and evolution, but are also crucial outside of biology: cybernetics, complexity theory, control theory, and engineering would benefit greatly from an understanding of how such complex, robust, and self-regulating machines can be designed and built. Robots that sensed (and repaired) damage would have immense scientific impact in space exploration, nanotechnology, and other areas where highly adaptive, massively parallel control algorithms are needed. Interestingly, although we are learning ever more about molecular pathways, we still know very little about how living systems regulate and remodel large-scale shape.
